OLABKSON ON "PARTNERSHIP. '
Dl.caiioi the Question fnvui n I.offnl Stand
point.
At Young Men's Christian association build
ing Frldny night Joseph R. Clarkson esq. ,
lectured on "Partnership. " He said that while
there were few persons who did not have
some conception of what a partnership was ,
It often required the astuteness and nicety
' of discrimination which pertained to that
traditional marvel , a "Philadelphia lawyer"
to determine whether a business relationship
between two or moro was or was not a
partnership. Several definitions of partner
ships were given , none of which , the speaker ,
said , clearly defined what one really was.
There might be a partnership In any legiti
mate business , enterprise or venture ; the
business to bo conducted might be world wide
or limited to a particular place ; the enter
prise might be gigantic , or ono Involving but
DO cents. So nice were the distinctions be
tween what Is and what Is not a partner
ship , so Infinite In number were the decisions
on special cases , and In such apparent con
flict were thcso decisions that It was neces
sary to resort to a few general tests for
answers to the questions.
There were three tests which were good.
First , the profits to bo shared as profits ;
second , the losses to be borne , and third ,
the business to the joint benefit of all con
cerned In prosecuting such business.
The lecturer recited the conditions under
different circumstances In which partnerships
might exist , nnd said that one had but to
undertake a monograph upon some branch ot
the law In order to realize what a vast , Incomprehensible -
, comprehensible , elusive thing the law was.
The only time a lawyer really knew the law
was when ho was bombarding some defense
less Judge with such law ns seemed fitted to
the occasion. A lawyer might as well
claim that ho could shoot Into the nlr a leader
or No. C shot , and upon Its return catch each
separate leaden globule as to say that he
could read the various works and cases on
. ony one branch of law , retain and perfectly
apply all of thorn to a question In hand. Ho
might possibly catch a few of the shot , or
ho could grasp and cling to a few general
legal principles.

SPECIAL TAXES MADE INVAITD ,
Fur Keiichlni : UcclHliin by Juilgo Uullln
Yestprcluy Morning ,
Collection of certain special taxes by th
city may be rendered much more dllflcul
by a decision rendered by Judge Dulfile yes
terduy. It makes questionable the validity
of outstanding special taxes of the nmoun
of $2,000,000 and of taxes of like charade
which have been paid , the amount of whlc
cannot now be estimated.
In July of 1SSS a mortgage for $3,500 was
given by Frances O'Brien upon lots 3 and
In Kountz © and Ruth's addition. This prop
erty lies between Eighteenth and Nineteen ! '
streets , near St. Mary's avenue. The
mortgage was given to the Equitable Trus
company and default was made In Its pay
ment , whereupon proceedings were begun t
have the same foreclose. ] . In the mcantlmi
thu city had created several paving , sewer
Ing nnd guttering districts and this strip o
property was subjected to taxes In the sun
of about $158.72. These were not paid , al
though the city published a notice that th
city council would sit as a board of equallza
tlon on October 31 nnd November 1 , 1888 , an
adjust any Inequalities. December 20 , ISS'j , J
W. Dcarskey purchased the property at
tax sale for the amount named and when th
foreclosure was begun , he had himself mad
a party defendant and asked that his tax Hen
be declared as prior to the mortgage. Th
mortga'ge Itself had been foreclosed as no par
tlcular contest was made , but a hard figh
was made attacking the validity of the" spe
cial tax. Judge Duffio has declared It In
valltl and found for the defendant on thl
Issue and against Doarskey.
The finding of the court was made on th
special ground that the notice of the city
council sitting as a board of equalization h
reference to the particular tax In question wa
Insufficient , In ( hot the form of notice uscc
did not specify the property affected or glv
Information as to the nature of the tax levied
The form of notice followed by the city , I
fact , up until 1S91 when certain mlno
changes were made simply designated th
paving district , without the specification o
the particular lots. The notice , the cour
holds , Is Insufficient and ho denominated th
calling of the Board of Equalization a
"merely the calling of a town meeting to al
Intents , so far as relates to the giving o
such Information , regarding the proposed lev.
as the taxpayer has a right to know. Ilo\
can the taxpayer , " said he , "when given sue !
a notice know whether ho wants to object t
the tax. All ho can do Is to call and fim
out what the tax Is nnd see If he desires t
contest. "
Inquiry at the city treasurer's office ellcltc
the fact that on the first of the year the clt
had $2,000.000 of uncollected special assess
ments in all stages of collection , some of thl
sum being due on the first and some on th
last Installment.
In the opinion of Councilman Saunders
who was attorney for Doarskey In the case
all this tax Is affected by the courts decision
as he says the city has practically been dls
regarding the rule as laid down by Judg
Duflle. holding that the other form of nolle
was quite sufficient.
The decision of Judge Duflle affects
rights of third parties who , like Doarskey
have bought up taxes at tax salea and es
peclally Is this true from 1SS7 to 1S92. 1
which year the new form of notice wa
adopted , regarding which there might be
question as to Its sufficiency , although Mr
Saunders says ho believes that this nolle
ot the sitting of the Board of Equallzatlo
Is also Insufficient. Clerk Fend , making
rough estimate , says that these third partle
will lose not less than $100,000 , though n
definite data has yet been complied. The
comes In the loss of the city Itself for eland
and uncollected taxes , where It has not bee
so fortunate as to have third parties pay I
the taxes , Such taxes cannot be collected ,
Is claimed , under this decision.

PAVED STREET TO PAIR GROUND
City Will I'rovlilo Ono If It Can Find tlic
ClKll.
The largest expenditure In public work
which Is contemplated by the Board of I'ubll
Works this season Is paving one of thi
streets leading to the state fair grounds
This work Is not assured , but It Is the gen
eral impression among city ofllclals that sine
the city has obtained the fair a paved stree
should be provided to the grounds If possi
blp. Either Loavenworth or Center stree
will ba selected as a thoroughfare , but so fa
the chances are about equal between th
two. No petitions have been presented ii
either case , but sentiment among the prop
erty owners Is being worke'd up and It is be
lleved a petition can be obtained for the pav
Ing of either street when It Is decided whlc
It would be most advisable to Improve.
The greatest difficulty In the way Is th
condition of the paving Intersection fund
At present there Is only about $7,000 In th
( und. Out of this must come the expense o ;
paving the Intersection of Eighteenth stree' '
and Capitol avenue and the intersections on
the Twenty-sixth and Jackson street Jobs.
The cost of paving an Intersection Is from
$700 to $800.
If Center street Is selected the pavcimen
will begin at Thirty-fourth street. This wil
make twenty-two Intersections to be paved
which would naturally Involve an expense o
about $16,000. On this street , however , mos
of the Intersections are abutted by prlvat
property on one side of the street where tin
cross streets are not cut through , so the ex
pense would be considerably reduced.
rough estimate would place the cost fo
Intersections on this route at not less than
$10,000.
On Leavenworth the pavement Is in ba
condition above Twenty-ninth street and re-
paving would have to begin at that point
This would give twenty-four Intersections be
twecn there and the fair grounds , of whlc
four are half Intersections , making twenty
two full Intersections , costing not less tha
$16,000. Against this expenditure there wil
only be about $5,000 In the fund , and hov
the extra fund is to be supplied Is a sorlou
problem. A provision was made for thl
contingency In the charter amendments , bu
as they failed to become laws some othe
plan will have to be Invented.

MOVE IN MAODONALD'S FAVOR.
Ordinance. Propo lnt : to Strengthen III *
ttnrlmgo Iliiiitlni ; .Monopoly ,
An ordinance now In the hands of a com
inlttce of the city council was introduced at
he last meeting of the council and purports
o be designed to combine the various cxlst-
ng garbage ordinances into n moro uniform
and satisfactory piece of legislation. How
ever this may be. It has been discovered that
he ordinance as it stands adds materially to
the prerogatives of Contractor Macdonald and
mterlally affects the Interests of a largo
class of property owners.
Under ordinance 3735 , the provisions rela
tive to the hauling of garbage made one or
two exceptions to the authority of the
garbage contractor. H was provided that
property owners should have the privilege of
hauling manure from their own premises
with their own wagons , and also allowing
them to haul cinders and clean ashes. In
the new ordinance these provisions are
eliminated and the contractor Is given exclu
sive authority to haul all sorts of garbage
without restriction.
There Is a large class of citizens whoown
teams and are accustomed to haul away the
manure and ashes from their premises to
suburban gardens , where the refuse Is used
for fertilizing purposes. It was for their
benefit that the clause was inserted In the
old ordinance. But the contractor has kepi
a zealous eye un this alleged Invasion ami
the result is the new ordinance , which com
pels these people to pay for the removal of all
refuse.
It Is expected that there will be a lively op
position to the ordinance on this account.
Recently Luclan Woodworth , an old citizen
and ex-soldier , was arrested and fined In
police court for hauling manure from his
premises In town to his suburban property.
Ho addressed n complaint to the council
which Is no\v being Investigated. A dozen
other Kimllar complaints arc pending and II
Is claimed that these arrests have been made
at the Instance of Contractor Macdonald

It has just leaked out that Edwan
Schmelser , the gentleman who Is accused by
Miss Anna Gelger with trilling with her
affections and borrowing 600 guilders of her
hard earned cash , and afterward leaving for
America without fulfilling a marriage con
tract or repaying the money , has b2en settling
up the cash account he Is charged with
though he has not paid anything on the bal
ance claimed for breach of promise.
Schmelser had Miss Gelger sent an Inter
national money order for 540 guilders , the
present reaching Miss Geiger Just In time for
Christmas. In addition to this Miss Gelger
claims Schmelser gave her $5 the first time
she found him In Omaha and said that he lm <
already married. The money order came
through the medium ot Miss Gelger's uncle
Von Rondt , a Vlennesss pedagogue , at whoso
house Schmelser assailed the heart of Miss
Gelger.

DAKOTA HOT SI'ltlNOH.
Homo of the Mnny Attraction * of Hint Ic-
llRlitfiil llfnort.
The Dakota Hot Springs entertained someh
hhiK like 15,000 visitors In the summer of
S94 , many as Invalids and semi-Invalids , and
many more as pleasure seekers and tourists ,
> uro and simple. The hotels this year report
hey arc booking already many of those vis-
tors' of last year , for this season. The seen-
ry , the climate , the slJo resorts of Interest ,
ml , nbovo all , the magnificent
PLUNGE BATH ,
the attractions of which Induce hundreds of
people of all nges to patronize It every day
ilurlng their stay. They como again and
again.
What Is the real attraction ?
The climate Is perfect.
The altitude (3,600 ( feet nbove the sea ) , es
capes contracting any possible miasmatic or
malarial disease ; expunges It from the sys
tem If It already exists.
The attractive scenery from the undulat
ing plains to the canyons In which the music
of the mountain brook Is a companion and a
lullaby ; from canyon to hill nnd mountain
from whose bounteous growth of pines come
healing breezes and delicious odors.
The fplendld hotels whoso generous veran
das and halls nnd hospitable tables nro pre
sided over by kindly and experienced hosts
and help.
The plunge bath the best and most pleas
urable of all attractions Is 250 feet long by
50 feet wide , covered by n. building
whoso dressing , cooling , drying rooms , and
observation balconies , Its stone and cemented
wjlls encircling the water pool , burmouiilcd
by a pavement nil around for promenade nf-
[ ord spectators , as well ns participants , Inl'n-
Ito entertainment. The Immense building Is
covered with n glass roof , which ndmlts
plenty of light nnd sunshine during the day ,
and electric lights supply the ilcht for iiipht.
The water , nt n temperature vf 96 itfg'tes ,
flows Into ami out of this pi.ol at the rate of
10.000 gallons per minute , bubbling with
gases , clear ns crystal , thus Is the pool kept
constantly purified , regardless of the number
of persons who occupy It. To witness or par
ticipate In the swimming , wading , swimming
diving , and plunging down the toboggan
slide , Is enjoyable to an extreme. A favorite
sport Is throwing coins Into the water to see
the divers p'ck them off the sandy bolt m.
Thus , day nftcr day , from morning until
midnight , hundreds meet in the water In
which their Judgment tells them they can
remain only about thirty or forty minutes ,
but from which they can hardly tear them
selves away.
Other hundreds drive or ride In the can-
yens , 'over the mountains , to the caves , the
Falls , " Cascade , or elsewhere as their fancy
moves them. In the evening the grand
piazzas of the hotels , the dancing pavilions ,
lighted by hundreds of electric lights , ore
filled with those who dance , or those who
look on and enjoy the music.
Here Is rest , recreation , healthful exercise ,
swimming , ba hUg , h alth and hunting health
receiving , hundreds and thousands , including :
The healthy but tired.
The rheumatic.
The dyspeptic.
The kidney sufferer.
The liver npathlst.
The blood poisoned.
The nervously prostrated.
The nll-'round Invalid.
But outnumbering nil these , the tourist
nnd pleasure-seeker , all happy In the enjoy
ment of Nature's greatest restorer.
Less thnn a day's journey east lie the "bad
lands , " whose relics of nil kinds In n stnte of
petrifaction , nre not found nor known any
where else in the world. This for the scien
tist or the student.
To the north are the gold fields new being
developed for more thnn ever before , because
richer deposits are found than were ever
dreamed of. The Black Hills nre now pro
ducing one-sixth of nil the gold produced In
the United States. This will , no doubt , be
Increased , from present appearances , to one-
third of the entire output of this coontry In
n very few yenrs.

NON-UNION MEN WORKING.
Latent Developments In Dloputo Itetwecn
HOSH neil iloiiriipyninn ItrcwnrH.
At a meeting of the boss brewers yesterday
afternoon It was decided to adhere strictly to
the course before agreed on , and the plants
in disfavor with the Brewery Workers' union
will bo fllleJ. up with non-union men. None
of the men who quit and who have not re
turned to work will now be re-employed.
At all the breweries Involved non-unloa men
were put to work yesterday.
The boss brewers claim that the contract
which they wanted to sign und which was
their proposition for a. settlement of existing
difficulties , is Identically the same as that
ono In effect In Cleveland. They say that
they will now treat their employes
as Individuals. They are not op
posed to trades union , but they will
not now hire a man who quit and refused
to return to work on twenty-four hours'
notice and who belongs to a union which Is
hostile to them. The manufacturers believe
that it would be unreasonable for them to
pay a man wages In this Instance which
would be diverted to a campaign fund to flght
the products of their breweries among mem
bers of organized labor. They Insist that as
employers of labor they have a right to
Invest authority In a foreman to dismiss an
cn.ployo for cause , without referring it to a
syndicate of workmen for ratification. The
ex-employes on the other hand , claim that
the right to make the foreman's decision
final is merely a guise to weed out union
men from time to tlmo and thus demoralize
an organization which the brewery workers

The Journeymen are making their head
quarters at Kaufman's 1m 11 anil at I-ang-
h * hn' ' . They roy that the i > o\ver of organized
abor In Omaha will bo brought In bear upon
: hs brewers and force them to settle the ex-
tiling grievances.
Yesterday the saloon keepers for the first
lime realized what an embarrassing position
they were placed In. It Is said that they have
been Importuned by the Journeymen brewers
io haul down the bock beer postern of the
breweries. On the other side they are re
quested by the brewers to keep the sumo
prominently displayed. Thus the saloon
keepers are between two fires. If they ad
vertise the fact that they keep beer manufac
tured by local breweries. It Incurs the dis
pleasure of pntrons who belong to organized
labor. The recent action of the Centr.il Labor
union In sustaining the journeymen brewers
has n tendency to make saloon keepers ruinl-
nato to some extent. It Is satil that a mini
her of falcons are under obligations to the
manufacturers and cannot refuse the latters'
request , wvcn at the sacrifice of the patronage
of trades union men.
